Thu, 29 Aug 2013 18:23:00 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=286361#comment-2758902i mean, yeah comparatively sure. 08/09 is proof he can pull a bottom of the heap type team to the playoffs.
.
i personally think McGrady’s 02-03 Season was the 2nd best individual season on a low talent team in the last decade to Kobe’s season in 05-06. But I wouldn’t argue with anyone who argues, Wade(08-09), or James(06-07)

maybe the tragedy besides his injuries was, as you mentioned, taking career advice from shelley long lol

Toronto waited for him to get some seasoning and when it was time for him to give them a return on their investment, McGrady bolted. He never won anything and never played on any meaningful teams. He made a lot of money and took a lot of shots, and that’s how he should be remembered. <—- That's what happens when you take career advice from Shelley Long.

However, McGrady didn’t want to be overshadowed by Vince so he left for Orlando so he could be “the man.” It’s hard to argue later that he didn’t have a supporting cast in Orlando, because that’s what he bargained for.

Some players, including McGrady, would rather put up stats on bad teams than actually play on a good team and be held to high expectations. McGrady didn’t want the pressure of expectations, and that’s why he shouldn’t be in the Hall of Fame.

Sh*t, McGrady did not have a single other starter play more than 55 games. Udonis Haslem and Mario Chalmers played 75+ for Miami that year. And Shawn Marion (the best complimentary player on Miami) played in 47 games. While Grant Hill (the best complimentary player on Orlando) played in only 29 games.

With this in mind..some of TMac’s number’s should be taken with a grain of salt. if your putting T MAc in then down the line you are going to be putting a lot of borderline ball – good ball players, excellent for some years but overall good ball players in.

Also, T Mac was great, but he had 1 awesome season and there are a lot of folks saying that he was better than Kobe. Just stop.

And AI, Lebron and Shaq were not better at powering their teams to wins than Kobe. Lebron took the Cavs to the Finals in a very weak east, and could only win when he had the best team in the League. As for Shaq, he had a premier shooting guard by his side for his entire prime, and failed to deliver a lot of times.

Thu, 29 Aug 2013 01:26:00 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=286361#comment-2758696McGrady finished in the top eight in the MVP voting six times from 2000-01 through 2007-08. However, he never won the award, and his best finish was fourth place in both 2001-02 and 2002-03. He was never regarded as “THE GREAT” player you state.

Starting with the 2005-06 season, McGrady frequently had problems with both his back and his knees. In his final four full seasons with the Rockets, McGrady played in just 219 out of a possible 328 regular season games, plus he missed the entire 2009 playoffs.

On the one hand, McGrady was somewhat infamous for never leading a team beyond the first round of the playoffs. During his time in Houston, the only time the team advanced to the conference semifinals was 2008-09, a season when McGrady missed 47 regular season games and all of the playoffs due to an injury to his left knee.

T_MAC is not what you say he is. Sorry, can’t see it.

The 2-5 highest scorers on that Magic team (Mike Miller, Grant Hill, Gordan Giricek, Drew Gooden) all played less than 50 games. In fact, Hill, Giricek, and Gooden all played less than 30 games. The next best player was Pat Garrity.

Kobe Bryant and McGrady both played on pretty bad teams those years (Kobe in the mid 00’s and McGrady in the early 00’s) McGrady got low 40 wins in a VERY weak Eastern Conference , whereas Kobe got his teams mid 40 wins in a very STRONG Western conference. The stats were all similar, but that was the only thing separating the two imo.

But there were games where he took ill advised shots, choked alot-no first round wins and he did not have good work ethic. I remember reading a story about him not working on his game. He was a flash in the pan, for about 6 years, then it went out. T-Mac did nothing else on the floor to make his teammates better, didn’t play defense, could have rebounded better and during that time, he was not getting praised like you all are doing now. Stevie Franchise got more love than T-MAC, there careers are similar to me. Flash in the Pan careers, except T-MAC stayed around playing in china and sitting at the end of benches praying to play.

I feel Vince had a better career than T-Mac and I don’t have him in the HOFame. So of course T-Mac is not. T-Mac couldn’t lead water to land. Yall must have forgotten how he was ripped throughout his career for being a selfish player, looking for SELF. T-Mac is being overrated, by homers. People its OK to speak the truth. He knows he is not, thats why he is stating it really don’t matter. He is not a HOFamer. Next yall cats are going to say Billups is a HOFamer. Some of yall didn’t watch T-Mac play, he was all self. Ask his teammates.

.
McGrady is one of seven players in NBA history to have eight straight seasons of 20 points per game, five rebounds per game and four assists per game. The others are Kobe Bryant(14), LeBron James (10), Michael Jordan (10), Oscar Robertson (10), Kevin Garnett (9) and Larry Bird (9).

• There are 15 other retired players in NBA history with at least 18,000 points, 5,000 rebounds and 4,000 assists in their careers. All 15 of those players are in the Basketball Hall of Fame.

• McGrady, Bird and James are the only players in NBA history with at least 15,000 points, 4,500 rebounds, 3,500 assists and 500 3-pointers in their first 11 seasons.

• McGrady is one of three players in the last 20 seasons to average at least 32 points per game in a season. He did so in 2002-03, and became the last player to average at least 32 points, 6.5 rebounds and 5.0 assists in a season. Only three other NBA players have done that in a season—Michael Jordan three times, Wilt Chamberlain twice, and Elgin Baylor once.http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/post/_/id/62420/top-stats-to-know-tracy-mcgrady

.
Look at who Tracy McGrady was stuck with in 2002-03. That team almost won a playoff series…..against the Pistons. Which was probably a better team than anyone that 2001 76ers had to beat.
